1. Our Values

### 1.1
Bosworth Solutions and each of its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as “we,” “our,” “us”) are dedicated to achieving excellence in all aspects of our business.

1.2
We always strive to maintain the highest professional standards and comply with all relevant laws, rules, and regulations. Our corporate responsibility strategy aims to enhance the positive impact of our business on society. We expect the same high standards from our suppliers.

Therefore, we expect our supply chain partners to conduct their business ethically, responsibly, with integrity, honesty, and transparency, and in compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. Where there are differences between the provisions of the law and this code, the higher standard should be applied. We require all our suppliers to endorse our values by adhering to this Supplier Code of Conduct.

As a minimum, we expect all our suppliers to meet the standards and uphold the principles outlined in this Supplier Code of Conduct. We also expect our suppliers (referred to as “you,” “your”) to hold their own supply chains to the same standards. This Supplier Code of Conduct is not exhaustive and should not be used to prevent companies from exceeding these standards.
